Tips for creating a bathroom fit for five stars

The cold winter nights are finally here, a month late but here nonetheless. On these dreary, wintry nights you cannot beat a hot bath. A proper pamper is just what the doctor ordered after a day in the rain and the wind and creating that five star feeling isn't as hard as you might think. Here's a few tips on creating that spa-esque feeling in the comfort of your own home.

A bathroom is a room in the house that should be designed purely with relaxation and bliss in mind. When decorating your bathroom keep the pallete natural and paired back. White and grey are great colours to use for walls and ceilings. Add some warmth with wooden features such as cabinets, great patterned splash backs and floor tiles and plants. 

Aim to keep the space as uncluttered as possible. When you're trying to relax the last thing you want is a jumble of bath products surrounding you. Some small storage space in the bathroom can help with this such as under or over sink cupboards but otherwise consider keeping some in a basket in your bedroom or a small basked of special bath goodies in the corner of the bathroom.

Bath oils, soaps and beautiful bath bombs add a touch of luxury with very little effort. Display them in a basket or rack or on the corner of the bath. Organise them in a way that's not going to stress you out when you're trying to relax. When choosing scents for bath oils keep them natural but relaxing, lavender is traditional but do you really want to smell like a lavender field for the rest of the day? The Blanc Bath Oil from The White Company is a lovely scent to relax into of an evening.

For a more stylish look you could even consider decanting your bath oils and salts into apothecary style jars. 

For some texture in your bathroom make sure to invest in some good quality thick towels and plush bath mat to make everything feel soft and luxurious. Also thinking about using towels as an opportunity to add a dash of colour to your neutral pallete.

The final touch has to be some good reading. A nice magazine or a classic book make a nice homely touch to the bathroom and look classy on a side table.
